A Review of the Role of Bioreactors for iPSCs-Based Tissue-Engineered Articular Cartilage

Conclusion:The use of mechanical and electrical stimulation to differentiate iPSCs, and maintain and test chondrocytes are key stimuli influencing hyaline cartilage homeostasis. Incorporating these stimuli to bioreactors can positively impact cartilage TE approaches and their possibility for posterior translation into the clinics.
